Most Democrat politicians are neo-liberals, meaning they are conservatives by all global standards.
We need progressives to take over the Dem party. If you are young and progressive, especially if you are in a shitty dead-end job, run for office. Do it. Local or national.
Sign up, go through the process, announce it for fun on social media. If nothing happens, it was a funny, enlightening experience. There is no upper limit to what can be accomplished if you actually start winning races, though.
This is the most brain damaged talking point, the Democrats are more left than the vast majority of the globe and Republicans are somewhere in the center. Unless your globe only consists of Canada, Scandinavia, and New Zealand then the Democrats aren't conservative
My friend, you are in the wrong space. This is a space for people who are actually interested in studying political economy, not bad faith morons.
You're literally a fucking tankie who supports Russia invading Ukraine. You're just outing yourself here as a bad faith moron.
You have it flipped, we don’t support NATO’s war of aggression against Russia.
Ukrainian President Yanukovych chose to have closer ties with Russia, which resulted in the Euromaidan coup in 2013-14, which directly caused this war.
I support the people of Ukraine and would like to see peace. The Zelensky government should end the war and cede Russia the land whose people want to return to Russia anyways.
Actually brain damaged
Maybe we should call y’all tankies since y’all keep starting wars everywhere and have no interest in peace
